Got a cupcake problem

Don't write to Mrs Mills of the Sunday Times expecting sympathy in her Mrs Mills Solves your Problems column! I read this in Sunday's paper while catching up on all the news at the superb Coffee@Whitecross - my favourite non-cupcake hangout in London and it made me laugh out loud! Enjoy :)

Miss Conceited
I went to the last of a long run of weddings at the weekend (14 in two years). On Sunday morning, I had a piece of chocolate wedding cake for breakfast, then a slice of the fruit cake layer for elevenses. For afternoon tea, I ate the most enormous cupcake, left over from the evening reception. Today I’ve eaten a piece of carrot cake and a mini lemon cake. I’m a size 10 and in my early thirties. Do I have a problem?

Yes. Watch out for a slap in the face. Nobody likes a show-off.

Netty Poskitt's cupcakes - time for the big 'uns!

Last time I went to Whitecross Market and bought some of Netty's cupcakes I went for a little egg box with 6 mini cupcakes and although they were really yummy I often find you can't really tell with the little ones so I thought I'd best go back and get some of her full size cupcakes to check they were nice...and my first impressions weren't wrong! They were yummy - a bit dry in the base but still good. Definitely worth a wander up to Whitecross, especially if its not wet and you have time to sit outside Coffee@Whitecross and watch the world go by :)
